So many to choose from
Beautiful South. So wet they could rehydrate the Sahara.
Coldplay. So fucking depressing they should form a suicide cult and hopefully take a few fans with them.
Jungle music, for influencing a bunch of wankers off their tits on E to wear hoodies, point at random people and say, 'booyaka' until the drugs wore off and everyone realised it was shit. It was banned in the local nightclub for causing the bass bins to reverberate themselves to bits.
Just about all electo-rave crap music in the early 90s produced by some tone-deaf cunt in a bedroom with a casio sampler, a drum machine and 10 minutes to spare.
The Cure. I tried listening to one of their albums, it sounded like everyone in the band had picked up a musical instrument for the first time and couldn't understand what it was.
Any boy band whose popularity depends entirely on one of them being gay (i.e. all boy bands).
All the rock/metal bands who tried to copy Bryan Adams with the next "Anything I do" love ballard while their fans, expected adrenaline fuelled guitary moshness, left in their droves.

And finally...

Anyone who thinks they can play the guitar because they know the first 8 bars of "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zepplin and nothing else but. This happened to me so many times that for over a decade I was convinced this was the only song Zepp wrote, until I brought their 'best of' CD in a sale, listened to it and actually recognised most of the tracks (which are awesome). But the assosiation between "Stairway" and shit guitar players will never go away.

Not to mention Bryan Addams himself
Guitar shops have really do have signs up saying 'no stairway' just like in Wayne's World
